Riveting stuff!!!

I totally understand where knife woman was coming from. To give life to a person who caused an accident not the victim!! But this is not the way.

Why would Goodwin get so close to someone with a knife, I get that she was trying to reason with her but that was a big risk.

Seeing Goodwin get stabbed is like your aunt or grandmother get attacked. It felt uncomfortable. 

Sidebar...S Epetha looks great. I don't know if she got a new stylist since her days on Law & Order but she dresses better, looks younger, and has better hairstyles now.

Does anyone else find the direction the show is taking the Sarah Reese character just sad? I was really hoping the show wouldn’t just reprise the ugly way they wrote Reese out of the show.  

ETA: I think it makes sense for Goodwin to have a completely different look from Lt. Van Buren. She’s in a (very likely) higher paid position, in a charge of a bigger chunk of a different institution; her position is also more overtly social, at least partly about making donors and board members feel looked after. It seems likely that her style would be a little more polished, her competence packaged in a way that’s a little more soignée.

Yeah, I was so excited to see she was back and then ... yeah. I wonder if they're going the "she's got sociopathy like her dad" route.

I noticed right away when they show the hands writing the note that it was probably a women's.  But don't remember if she was on that particular episode when that boat accident happened and all the events that followed.

Wow another intense show ( same with svu) as a mid season finale.  
 

So glad it wasn’t nice boyfriend doctor.

Valid points, But I think it goes beyond a change in character. It looks like she's had a makeover in her personal life as well.

I hope when the show returns Goodwin is able to joke with Archer and say his resignation letter  saved her life…now tear it up.

I thought it was interesting that the writers had Goodwin's attacker be not so sure about actually killing her
